Hookina is a former town in the Flinders Ranges in South Australia. It is now included as part of the bounded locality of Barndioota. It was surveyed in 1862 on the route for transporting ore from mines at Blinman to the coast. By the time it was surveyed, there was already a 12-room inn and a blacksmith shop.
